I prefer a vodka tonic or Yuengling Lager while tying. I limit it to one drink because I find it frustrating to tie if I have more than that.

either of those are good, for my druthers Gin &. tonic has more flavor ...Vodka, I'm not Russian or Polish.
I was a bartender for 12 years two months two weeks and three days. give me Lager from Germany and I'll tie you a dozen.
remember "Country Club" from Goetz?
